After Xu Chuan refused several times in a row, Prince Faisal also knew that the request to buy a space shuttle would probably not work for him.

However, this does not mean that this matter is completely unworkable, as Xu Chuan said, this kind of transaction is actually more appropriate to go directly to Huaguo Commerce.

Perhaps, given some conditions, China may agree to the request to purchase a space shuttle.

It's just that the person in front of him also has the ability to facilitate this kind of transaction, and people who are engaged in academics are generally light-minded, and they may not care much about interests, so he wants to try it from here.

After thinking about it for a while, he decided to change his perspective to promote his ultimate goal.

"Xu, the purchase of the space shuttle will be put aside for the time being, and how about we talk about another cooperation?"

After thinking for a while, Prince Faisal smiled and spoke.

Xu Chuan glanced at him with some curiosity and said, "Prince, please speak." ”

Prince Faisal cleared his throat and said, "On the basis of the cooperation of the Lunar Biosphere Project, we have asked the Xinghai Research Institute to provide interstellar transportation resources to help the Middle East Consortium build a mosque and a lunar hotel on the surface of the moon. ”

"Of course, it's not free, and we can pay for it."

The construction of a mosque and a hotel on the moon was a decision that they had discussed in an internal meeting, not a sudden idea of his, the preparations were quite complete, and even the relevant design drawings were available, but they were not brought into space.

On the other side, Xu Chuan was not too surprised to hear this request.

The construction of a lunar hotel to carry out lunar tourism was originally a means he used to attract these large players in the Middle East to invest in the lunar biosphere project, but now an additional mosque has been added, which is also expected.

After all, for Arabs in the Middle East, mosques are faith.

He remembers a statistic that seems to be that in the two decades from 1982 to 2005, Saudi Arabia alone spent more than 75 billion yuan to build 200 Islamic universities or colleges, 210 Islamic centers, 1,500 mosques and more than 2,000 primary and secondary schools for Muslim children in countries around the world.

It shows the place of mosques and Islam in the hearts of these bearded people.

As for the Moon Hotel, these people want to expand the influence of Islam while making a tourist base on the moon?

Even today, the other party repeatedly mentioned to him the purchase of a space shuttle, which may have paved the way for this matter.

Now that I think about it, these big dogs have long set their sights on cutting-edge tourism such as space travel and moon travel.

Although space travel and moon travel are difficult to open to the broad masses of people today, after all, each time it costs millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars.

But for those super-rich who stand at the top of the pyramid, they can spend millions or even 100 million to complete a space trip while ensuring the safety of their lives, and a trip to the moon is nothing.

Although the proportion of rich people is small, there are still a lot of them, especially this group of bearded people in the Middle East, which is itself a circle of super-rich, and they know all kinds of super-rich people.

Finding a source of space travel and moon travel is not a difficult task for them.

Suddenly, Xu Chuan suddenly remembered an additional transportation condition that Prince Faisal had finalized when he was negotiating cooperation on the lunar biosphere project on the ground.

To put it simply, the Middle East consortium is willing to spend 10 million RMB per person to purchase earth-moon transportation resources from the Xinghai Research Institute.

I have to say that there is no one who can come out to do business.

If you talk about the construction of a mosque and a moon hotel in the back of the transportation conditions, it will definitely be slaughtered by the space agency, after all, this is an additional project

And the previous 10 million soft sister coins for one person's lunar transportation conditions, in fact, on the basis of scientific research, Huaguo, or Xinghai Research Institute, did not make too much, and only made six or seven million.

After all, the traditional manned landing on the moon, every time the funds spent are calculated in units of 100 million, 10 million, which is already very cheap.

Of course, if a space shuttle can be purchased from him, then this transportation cost can naturally be saved.

A space shuttle, if it is fully prepared and the cargo compartment is converted back into a habitation module, there is no problem at all to travel to the moon with 30-50 passengers.

A one-time buyout is much better than constantly buying transportation resources from Huaguo.

In the living cabin, Xu Chuan thought for a while and then smiled and did a tai chi.

"Mr. Prince, I don't know much about the lunar surface project, this kind of cooperation, let's wait for us to land, and then communicate with professionals."

He was embarrassed to refuse to buy a space shuttle, and to refuse to build a mosque and a moon hotel on the moon.

And this is the means he uses to attract people to come and invest in the lunar biosphere, and he still has to do what he says.

However, he still forgot about the specific negotiations, after all, he is not a professional business person.

Building a mosque and a hotel on the moon is not an easy task, and the amount of work, the difficulty of construction, the cost of money, profits, and the way of cooperation all have to be calculated and considered.

Win-win still has a long history, not just for the purpose of cooperation once.

On the other side, Prince Faisal nodded with a smile and said, "Of course, this kind of work can be handed over to the people below." ”

After a slight pause, he looked out of the porthole and sighed: "If only there would be a glass of champagne here, such a beautiful scenery, now I always feel that something is missing." ”

Xu Chuan smiled a little puzzled: "This weightless environment, you can't toast." After all, a glass of red wine will spill when you touch it. ”

Prince Faisal: "."

Is this person allergic to romance?

But soon he seemed to remember something, and his eyes lit up and asked tentatively, "Xu, why don't you study artificial gravity?" ”

"I think you know better than I do that the development of outer space is definitely the way to go in the future. Just as we are now in low-Earth orbit aboard Xinghai, in the future, interstellar travel will definitely be the most important development. ”

"But don't you think it's inconvenient to do anything in this weightless environment?"

"I've seen a lot of science fiction movies and those spaceships are on interstellar travel, and the people in them are almost the same as living on Earth."

Listening to the Middle Eastern tyrant in front of him discussing scientific matters with him, Xu Chuan smiled dumbly, shook his head and replied: "Artificial gravity is not such a simple thing. ”

"This kind of technology, even if it is put into the research of physicists of all mankind, it is difficult to find the right direction."

After a slight pause, he looked at Prince Faisal with a smile and asked, "Mr. Prince, do you know why the earth has gravity?" Why can we stand on the earth and move? ”

Hearing Xu Chuan ask himself, Prince Faisal was stunned for a moment, and then replied with half confusion and half affirmation: "Because of the huge mass of the earth? ”

Although the Middle East is rich and oily, it can be said that it is an upstart who sits at home and counts money. However, the vast majority of the royal family is not as unbearable as some people imagine, and they are not fools who don't understand anything.

In fact, most of the royal family members actually have quite high academic qualifications. For example, Prince Hamdan of Dubai, who is quite famous on the Internet, graduated from the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst and the London School of Economics and Political Science.

Of course, academic qualifications are one thing, but whether or not you have learned knowledge is another.

Xu Chuan smiled and said, "Mass is one thing, and on the other hand, it's because the earth is constantly rotating. ”

"Rotation?"

Xu Chuan nodded and explained with a smile: "Yes, simply put, the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the earth, combined with the gravitational force born of the earth's huge mass, is the so-called gravity. ”

"In physics, forces are interacting, the action of objects on objects. That is, only two or more objects can produce the action of force. And gravity, you can approximate that the object of gravity is the earth, and the object of gravity is the object on the earth or near the surface of the earth."

After briefly explaining some physics of gravity and artificial gravity, Xu Chuan finally added lightly.

To put it simply, if you want to create artificial gravity, gravity and centrifugal force are essential."

On the other side, Prince Faisal, who had been poured a bunch of physics knowledge, was already covered with a face at the moment, a circle full of mosquito coils, what force interaction, what gravity, centrifugal force, etc., he couldn't tell the difference.

He looked at Xu Chuan blankly, and only heard the last sentence: "Isn't it enough to create gravitational and centrifugal forces?" ”

As soon as these words came out, it was Xu Chuan's turn to be dumbfounded.

He sighed, feeling that he had just explained with the most basic knowledge that he was playing the piano to the cow.

Creating gravitational and centrifugal forces?

That's whimsical, isn't it?

Well, this can only be said that he came out to be a local tyrant before he finished nine years of compulsory education.

It's not right, whether people in the Middle East have nine years of compulsory education, whether they learn basic physics or not is a question. After all, there is a home in the mine, and you just need to spend money lying down.

Physics or something, it doesn't matter to them at all, at most they learn how to manage talents or business or something.

After ending the exchange with Prince Faisal, Xu Chuan floated out of the living cabin, and also took Tang Sijia and the others away, leaving this small room to two tourists from the Middle East.

On the side, after seeing the hatch slowly close, Abdulrahman floated over from the porthole, and asked with some curiosity as Prince Faisal, who had not yet recovered from the blindfold.

"What did you guys just talk about?"

This time, I came to cooperate with Hua Guo and that Professor Xu, and it was Prince Faisal who led the team. In general, the vast majority of matters are also decided by Prince Faisal.

Not only because of his status, but also because he does have this business talent.

Hearing the voice of his companion, Prince Faisal came back to his senses, sighed uncontrollably, and said faintly: "He explained to me a lot of physics about how gravity is generated, and the reason why it is difficult to popularize artificial gravity. ”

"You understand?"

Prince Faisal raised his head and glanced at Abdulrahman: "What do you think?" ”

He swore that even when he was in school, he had never listened so seriously!

But alas, he still didn't understand a word.

The corners of Abdulrahman's mouth moved, and he looked at Prince Faisal with a sympathetic look on his face.

It seems that this is a painful memory, but fortunately it is not him who is in charge.
